Yes, thank you. You present a perfect example of a meaningless rhetorical question with its single effect being to agitate. It is, as previously said, "pointless crying".

People that respect themselves, aren't constantly worrying about being dissed, or having to prove how badass they are. Why would people that just want to be accepted, think that acceptance is achieved by threats. It's not. It's achieved thru behavior. You earn trust, you cannot demand it.
Women that want to be treated like ladies, must act like ladies first. Same goes for men. It's not the skin color, it's the cultural differences.

The cultural differences explain the 27.4/100,000 forcible rape rate in 95.79% white Iowa compared to 18.9/100,000 in 48.5% Hispanic Los Angeles, right? Both are about the same population, so there must be something else going on in Iowa... oh yeah, the cultural differences.

Your comment is misdirected.

Try taking your own advice, it would be the gentlemanly thing to do.

From what I read, the girl that was murdered was trying to intervene between two others, to be the mediator.

13% of the population but 50% of the homicides. Black crime is way out of control.
What might help is if a certain sub culture is addressed . And that is the thug/Gangsta rap nonsense.

Some kids can watch or listen to pro violence and not be affected, others cannot and are affected.

Gang culture often glorifies killing, disrespect and violence toward it's own and that often times is Black and Latino peoples.

Most White or Asian violent media is not focussed solely on it's own, but towards others.

Cultural differences, poverty and lack of opportunities are contributing factors, just like single mother households ( meaning less income also) and lack of suitable male role models.

I'm not making excuses for it as there are plenty of people in the same situation that rise above this.

The higher levels of crime in certain communities need to be addressed as it affects EVERYONE in the end.

Social services/welfare also needs to be revamped and other societal issues need to be looked at because at the rate we are going at we will have a permanent underclass of misfits that will hinder the quality of life for all people around them.

Who said anything about all black college students are involved in crime. I truly don't get this line of thinking. It appears in order for the Black community to admit there is a problem either all Blacks must be engaged in an activity or only Blacks. I've seen numerous times where a black poster will respond to stats by posting a story about a white person.

Here is the point and it is made clear in the article I posted. These type of crimes are rare in college period. Yet we have had two at state colleges within the past three months involving black women.

Here's the issue...

We (African Americans) do not disagree with the fact that something must be done to curb acts of violence. However, we simply happen find the agenda of the messenger (due to previous expressions of his opinions) suspect. There is zero benevolence in the feigned "concern".

It's really sad that the black community chooses to get defensive when these type of incidents present themselves on a regular basis instead of admitting a problem and addressing it.

You are black, right? How are you addressing it? By posting links on a message board? That isn't going to get it. Since you are so distraught about this and seem to like talking about this "problem," what are you doing about it?

4 charged in 'brutal' city rape Tuesday

The alleged attacks at the 298 Queen City Ave. hotel spanned more than five hours — during which two of the men forcibly raped the woman while all four sexually assaulted her, then threatened her and stole her money to keep her from leaving, police allege.

I guess violence is everywhere, get your head out your rectum.

Oh my God........the alleged rapists are all "acceptable" black immigrants from Africa that EdwardA likes to fawn all over. What happened? The horror, the horror..........
